Beano's Cabin Restaurant Review

: This cabin is hardly modest or rustic, but rather a hand-hewn log lodge nestled in an aspen grove, with large windows, high ceilings and an open kitchen. Western artifacts and fabrics define the ambience. In winter, Beano's is a private ski-in, ski-out luncheon club and a dinner adventure open to the public. Snowcat-drawn sleighs depart frequently from Rendezvous Cabin at the Beaver Creek base for the 20-minute ride, which---wool blankets notwithstanding---is just about as long as most people want to be out on a Colorado winter night. Summer access is by tractor-pulled wagon, horseback or van. However we get there, we enjoy the seasonal five-course prix-fixe dinner menu. A first-course salad of mixed greens with red onion, goat cheese, toasted pine nuts and raspberry balsamic vinaigrette might start the meal. A choice of eight appetizers and nine main courses follows. Imaginative first courses include venison carpaccio with apricot-ginger chutney and Pommery mustard vinaigrette and pancetta-wrapped rabbit loin crowned with stewed cherry compote. Following a palate-cleanser comes elegant cabin-worthy selections like pan-roasted Scottish salmon, elk Wellington, pan-seared halibut or the pork chop with white cheddar macaroni and cheese. There's always a vegetarian option as well.

Overpriced! Bad food! Bad service! Trap for tourists! Donâ€™t go there! There are so many really nice restaurants in the area, donâ€™t waist your time to go this place! The restaurant is up in the mountain so they bring you with a construction type of vehicle there which is very dirty, the seats are wet and they give you some disgusting blankets to cover yourself with, which you eventually have to use because the ride is long and freezing. The place itself is a large warehouse, unwelcoming, cold. The service is bad, the food is really bad and overpriced. They try to make you buy expensive wine, saying that the one you chose is unavailable etc. Really terrible place!
